On last Tuesday night an enthu
siastic meeting was held at HALEY
for the purpose of taking necessary
steps to prevent any attempt al
at dividing the county being made
in the Legislature. Hon. John NJ
Cannady was called to the chair
George NJ. Payne and George w
Richards acting as secretaries. A
committee was appointed consisting
of F. +. Ensign, George II. Rob
erts and p. NJ. Bruner, which pre-
pared the following remonstrance
adopted and signed by all present
To the Honorable Council and House OF
Representatives of the Legislative Assem-
bly, of idaho Trrritory:
We the undersigned, citizens and taxpay-
ers of Alturas county. would respectfully
represent that We have just this evening,
25th instant, learned that an attempt will

strate against any and all such action, be
lieving that no valid reason can he giver

The reduction of internal revenue
and the taking off of revenue
stamps from Proprietary Medicines,
no doubt has largely benefited the
consumers, as we'll as relieving the
burden of home manufacturers.
Especially is this the case with
Green's August Flower and Bos-
chee's German Syrup, as the reduc-
ton of thirty-six cents per dozen
has been added to increase the
size of the bottles containing these
remedies, thereby giving one-fifth
more medicine in the IS cent size.
The August Flower for Dyspepsia
and Liver Complaint, and the Ger
man Syrup for Cough and Lung
troubles, have perhaps, the largest
sale of any medicines in the world.
The advantage of increased size of
the bottles will be greatly appreci-
ated by the sick and afflicted, in
every town and village in civilized
countries. Sample bottles, for 10
cent sremain the same size.

Harry Harding, who last summer
was employed as bartender at the
Metropolitan saloon here, after leav-
ing Ketchum drifted about the ter
ritory until at last he enlisted as a
bold soldier boy and found himself
in the awkward squad at Boise bar
racks. Last Saturday night he
broke open the gun rack, took a
gun, loaded it and started for town,
threatening to shoot any one who
interfered with him. An orderly
sergeant started after him and was
fired at by Harding. A squad of
soldiers was ordered out by the
sergeant to capture the new recruit,
who was soon overtaken and or
dered to halt. Instead of SO doing
he started to run and made a break
for the door of the Pony saloon,
when one of the guards fired at him,
the ball passing through his shout
der into his neck and came out in
his cheek close to his nose. He
was captured, taken to the barracks,
where his wounds were dressed,
and then chained to bed in the
guard house.

At the time Coles circus exhibit
ted at HALEY last summer the pres
ence of three dun horses, that took
part in the grand entree may be
remembered. These animals had
been owned by Mr.. Cole for years,
and when the establishment was
sold out at New Orleans, by some
mistake these animals were dis
posed Of MIR. Cole at once bought
them back saying he would never
consent to have the horses become
the property of any one who would
make them work and he had decided
to put them to a painless death. He
proposed bleeding them but liv-
cry man suggested the use of chic
reform as less painful which was
decided upon. They were all col
lected in the circus tent. There
was Cole. the riders and the clowns,
the ring-masters, the tumblers and
leapers. and the three pet duns.
Calling the little mare by name he
told her to kiss them all goodbye.
The intelligent animal stretching
forward her head kissed each one.
This was more than they could
stand, and the sacrifice was put off.
The livery man promised to find
some one who would assume charge
of them, under guarantee never to
work them, but to keep them in
good order until age should claim
them for the grave.

LITTLE SMOKY, Jan. 20, 1887.
Ed. KEYSTONE 1T has been
showing for the past week, but on
Tuesday it started to come down
in good earnest with a southwest
wind prevailing, and now lies six
to seven feet deep.
Some of the boys have just come
down from the Dollarhide mine
and report a snow slide there yes
terday which carried away the Chi
nese cook. 1t occurred just before
noon, and the men hunted the re-
maindcr of that day and a portion
of this morning hoping to rescue
the man, but failed to find him, and
started back to the mine. The
parties from the mine were Mike
Ryan, Stoner and another man,
who left this afternoon for home,
but l am afraid they will not get
there tonight. They can stay at
McPhadden's cabin, if necessary.
No other casualties have occurred
so far this winter. 1t has showed
80 necessarily that everyone stays
at home.
The mail got in to-day, being
brought on snow-shoes after a hard
trip.
The Silver Star boys were down
after the mail and report every
thing 0. X. at that mine.
No slides have occurred at the
Carrie Leonard yet.

is built, and looked on with anger
while the work was proceeding until
an incident occurred which aroused
them to fighting heat. One day
last week two Indians went in a
peaceable manner to the house of
an employee of the road and knock
ed at the door. He chased them
away with a club, striking one of
them. An incident like this will
rouse the blood of the whole ma
ton, and had that effect.
On Wednesday last d. Y. Miller,
who has ranch about five miles
out of town, near that of F. S. Ste
vens, undertook to drive four head
of cattle across the river. In doing
so he had occasion to throw the
lariet at one of them. Just as he
was in the act of doing so his horse
stumbled and fell on his left leg
causing two breaks in the middle
third. The ankle upon the same
limb is badly fractured.

The necessity of having the mail
arrive at Ketchum seven days in a
week is more than ever apparent.
The train on Mondays is invaria-
bly, late and starts back on the re-
turn trip before the distribution OF
the two days mail can take place.
Replies to letters of importance are
thereby delayed at least one day,
while aside from this important
item in q claim for q seven days
service, there are many other incon-
veniences suffered that could be
obviated by q Sunday train and
mail. The various towns on the
River should combine and send q
petition to the department asking
such increase of the service.

THE BUCKsKlN GROUP.
The Property Parchased by N
East 81. Louis Company.

The Buckskin Silver Mining
Company, of East st. Louis, Illi-
nois, new organization, has within
the past few days purchased the
Buckskin group of mines, consist
ing of the Marathon, Sunset, Buck
skin and Early Bird claims, located
in the Valley Greek district, eight
miles northwest of Stanley Basin.
On the Goth inst. a telegram was
received at Salt Lake city that the
money for the purchase of the
property had been deposited and
ready for delivery on surrender of
the deeds. The sale was made on
the report of Cal. Clawson, who
was employed to make an examina-
ton and report upon the same last
spring. The decline of silver during
the summer caused the purchasers
to delay securing the property UNI
til a better market price for silver
prevailed, and last week advices
state the sale was consummated.
The property has as yet been only
prospected sufficiently to determine
its value, but the new owners will
put force of men to work in the
spring and commence active opera
tons. The group of mines are To-
Gated in fine country for operat-
ing, timber and water being con-
venient. The mines can be reached
by wagon road from Ketchum,
which will be the supply point for
the new company. Mr. Clawson
has also been engaged to make re-
ports upon other mining properties,
and hopes to effect one or more
sales shortly.
